[dpdk-dev] [PATCH v2 2/7] net/virtio_user: postpone DRIVER OK notification

[Jianfeng Tan]

In driver probe phase, we obtain device information; and then virtio
driver will initialize device and stores info, like negotiated
features, in vhost_user layer; finally, vhost_user gets DRIVER_OK
notification from virtio driver, and then sync with backend device.

Previously, DRIVER_OK could be sent twice: 1. when ether layer invokes
eth_device_init to initialize device; 2. when user configures it with
different configuration from that of previous.

Since we can only depend on DRIVER_OK notification to sync with backend
device, we postpone it to virtio_dev_start when everything is settled.
